Now the real ideas rollin
Should I post a request for this at request section?
The inflation indeed...
Now jokes aside, see whichever applies to you,
- I tend to read a lot of completed stuff, lets divide it into some cases,
- I am reading it as a pdf or on sites with no comment feature, cant blame me for that
- I am reading something from like 2015, yeah it is a bit not worth commenting - if I really wanna talk about it, I will just go and annoy some forum members ... or not.
- It is an old chapter, no point in commenting on chp 10 whwn the story is at chp 25
- You are using blogger or something, yeahhhhh
- You already are popular,
- Well I am probably late to the party anyways
- I wanted to make this comment but someone else already made it
- Yeah I am not gonna be the guy who adds the thousandth thanks - infact I never will say thanks or comment if I dont have something worth bringing to the table
- I am just gonna lurk and enjoy reading all this comments in peace
- You are not so popular,
- Yeah fam, everyone is waiting for someone else to start the discussion. You as an author are gonna need to make your community much more active - I aint wasting my time commenting in a dead comment section
Harsh but that is sorta how it goes, add in some laziness, unwillingness to frame a proper readable comment for the world to see and wanting to not want to interact on the internet does that.
Infact I would recommend you to check out how students behave in online classes - shit is so dead silent you would think you never connected to the call in the first place.
Some people just wont comment ever period. Some only comment if they feel like they can have an interesting discussion following the comment. Some just arent paying enough attention to really be able to comment anything.
As a further rec, if you really want a decent amount of reader feedback, check out quests on sufficient velocity - An interactive story with important choices after every chp or so tends to make for an active community
